「New Problem」
The Northern Continent, in athe eastern tip
Centuries ago, the elves escaped their hu into this vast forest The elven village Raratoia was currently covered by the earlymist, and few people were actually wake yet
The reatly froular homes in Raratoia
Glass s had been cut into the tree-trunk below to the branches of an unbelievably large tree The entireand a tree, a fantastic exas of this world, while alsoatmosphere
I had just woken up in one of the mansion’s roo on my comfortable bed
The clothes I earing had unique elven patterns sewn into them, but since they had been wrapped arounda little disheveled
When I glanced into the full bodyin the eye sockets of a human skull
I’ve become very familiar with this body ever since I came to this world, but I still raised estures just to confir at
After that was done, I picked up the leather canteen of hot spring water I had placed next to an to drink from it
The change in my body was almost instantaneous
The skeleton I had been looking at in the mirror was replaced with a body that filled out the clothes when I drank the curse dispelling water
The reflection of the strange looking skeleton was replaced with the visage of a browned-skinned, muscular man
The htly Arabian with raven-black hair, a strong jaw, and stubble sprouting fro ears were not those of a human
I started to move around to ease some of the stiffness in my shoulders
“Hmm, there doesn’t seem to be any problems”
I made that comment as I stood up in this still dark room
There was a snoring, green fur ball lying on the bed whose tail fidgeted a bit when I stood up
“Ponta’s still asleep……”
The sixty-centimeter small, fox-like anis that were si squirrel She had beento this world
Her back was covered in light green fur with a white underbelly that extended to the center of her tail There was no sign of her waking up as her mouth opened and closed
The suit of armor that I alore to hide my skeletal body and a two-handed bastard sere sitting in a corner I thought about changing but decided against it before leaving the room
In this world, people ith the rising sun, so the in
I could hear the chirping of the birds that nested in the tree as I cautiously walked across the wooden floor
I went down to the second floor and took a peek inside the dining room, but no one was there
“Well, I suppose it still too early……”
When I scratchedat the unlit stove, a voice called out to me from behind
“You’re quite an early riser today, Arc-kun”
When I looked back I saw a young dark elven woolden eyes
She looked puzzled as to why I was in the dining room and h

er arms were crossed under her ample bosom
“Oh, Glenys-dono”
She was the wife of Raratoia’s village elder and the acting elder while he ay on business
“I was surprised to see an unknown person walking about”
She giggled a little as she said that
I usually walked around this place as a skeleton, believing that wandering around like that was bad for people’s hearts, but rown used to it
At this point, the “cursed skeleton”-look had started to beco in a broad sense
“Really? By the hy are you up so early?”
After looking up from my body when Glenys asked why I was up
“Oh, that I ondering if the crewdoiven their permission yet? You could say it made me a little anxious……”
Glenys was startled for a ed her shoulders
“You do know that you can’t gain perle day? Do you really want to go to the Southern Continent that badly?”
Her words made me feel like an ele field trip, so I looked out a nearbyto hide my embarrassment
I could see that the h the earlyhaze
“Huaa〜, good …… It’s a bit early isn’t it”
When I heard the voice of another woin
The yawning wo her eyes as she entered the room looked similar to Glenys
She had the saolden eyes and lilac skin as Glenys Though her hair was longer, she greatly rese next to me
Her name was Ariane Glenys Maple
She was a warrior from the forest capital Maple and I’ve been in her care since shortly after I first came to this world
“GoodAriane-dono”
When I greeted the still yawning Ariane, Glenys clapped her hands together as if she had just thought of so
“Since it’s gonna be a while until we hear anything about the trip to the Fabuna’ha kingdom and breakfast isn’t ready yet, how about you help Arc-kun with his swordsmanshi+p Ariane?”
She turned towards Ariane with a smile on her face as she spoke
“Yeah, I’d be really grateful if you could be my partner……”
After signing off on Glenys’ suggestion I also turned towards Ariane and waited for her reply
My current body was that of h stats I a meant that I moved rather monotonously in battle, so the last time I sparred with Glenys I was utterly defeated
I had outstanding power and speed, but I couldn’t follow a curve ball…… or so like that
While I doubted there were all that many people with her level of talent in the world, it would be for the best to become more accustomed to combat
